About Alien in the Delta:
Grandfather shot the man as he opened the gate to the front yard. The man died on the spot. After killing the man, my grandfather went into hiding for seven years. This event was the legacy left to my father by his father. Would what happened thirty years before my birth have an impact on my life?
Alien in the Delta’s author Thankful Strother takes you on a journey that highlights the life experiences of a boy from the age of six through manhood. He grew up on the Mississippi River in the Arkansas Delta, but felt out-of-place in that environment. In his home town prejudice and inequality were practice openly. His escape from the Delta was not realized until he went abroad. You go with him on his adventures in the rural south and throughout Europe. Thankful Strother spent four years in the United States Air Force stationed in Germany where he learned to speak German and met his future wife. He settles in Detroit starts a family and buys their first house. He goes to work in the automotive industry, learns to program computers, enters the corporate world and becomes a successful manager and real estate investor. He shares with you a variety of emotions including fear, sadness, happiness, and amusement. Alien in the Delta is a memoir about a poor boy that discovered how to overcome life’s obstacles at every turn to become successful.
An experience that stands out in my mind happened in a German restaurant. We were young men from the United States, living in Europe without a lot of exposure. Our knowledge of culture limited because we had not seen or done many things before coming to Germany.
Bobby and I went to a German restaurant to eat dinner. We had gone there once before, and this time we brought our friend, Shorty with us. The hostess seated us and gave us the menus. While Shorty looked over the menu, Bobby and I had already decided what we wanted to order, so we placed our menus on the table. Noticing this, Shorty said that he would have whatever we were ordering.
This restaurant was very upscale. Each table had a white tablecloth on it with a beautiful flower arrangement in the center. The settings consisted of plates, silverware, glasses, and white cloth napkins. When the waitress came to take our order, we all ordered the chicken dinner, just as before when Bobby and I had eaten there. Each dinner included a large piece of chicken, baked potato, salad, bread roll, and dessert. Except for the dessert, all the dinner items were serve to us at the same time. When we finished eating our dinner, our plates were removed.
The waitress returned to our table carrying several small plates and bowls half filled with water with a lemon slice floating on top. She placed the small plates in front of us and set a bowl on each small plate. I asked Bobby if he wanted my lemon soup. He had enjoyed it so much the last time we were at the restaurant.
Shorty began to laugh and said, “Let me get this straight. Are you telling me that Bobby ate the contents of that bowl the last time you were here?” I told Shorty that not only did he eat his soup, he also ate my serving. I described how Bobby took his bread and tore it into little pieces and placed them in the soup and used a spoon to finish eating his soup.
At that point Shorty had started to convulse from laughing. We laughed along with Shorty, not knowing why he was laughing. When Shorty regained his composure, he told us that we were really ignorant country people. He explained that the bowls were call finger bowls because they were use to dip your fingers into after eating chicken to remove the grease. Then the bowls would be removed, and our waitress would bring us dessert and place it on the small plates.
Well, we did not know anything about finger bowls in Arkansas and Mississippi, where Bobby and I came from. We continued laughing after finding out that Bobby had eaten finger bowl water, thinking it was soup. That was the last time we ate at that place

Their true enemy remains elusive, but causes more trouble than they thought possible by coming into their world and making their presence known with devastating consequences.

An Elfy on the Loose by Barb Caffrey
About An Elfy on the Loose by Barb Caffrey:
One Elfy for an entire planet?
He’s supposed to be the Watcher for his people, the representative on Earth from his dimension, but the small being known to his enemies as “Jonny-Wonny” wakes up to big trouble — trapped in a bizarre house in Knightsville, California with humans straight out of reality TV. Jon knows that something has gone dreadfully wrong — he’s starving, lonely and dressed in funny clothes.
Enter the couple’s ten-year-old diminutive daughter, who is “Not Daisy!” but is brilliant, sweet…and using high level magic with ease. She’s also desperately in need of a friend.
Insisting her name is really Sarah, and christening him Bruno, his new friend asks him how they’re going to get out of there.
The only thing that comes to mind is for Bruno to ask his teacher, Roberto the Wise, for help. But Roberto’s attempt at help only enmeshes all three of them further in a web of deceit and treachery. Bruno finds out that, unfortunately, most of what he thought he knew about himself was very wrong…and much of what Sarah knows about herself is also wrong, including her age.
Worst of all, a Dark Elf is on the scene and is intent on corrupting the local Humans, including Sarah’s parents.
New names, new locations, a new mission–Bruno is going to get to the bottom of all the craziness, and Sarah will be there for him every step of the way.
Watch out, universe–an Elfy is on the loose!

About The Tailor’s Daughter:
From the New York Times bestselling author of Firebird. Set in 1860’s Victorian England, The Tailor’s Daughter tells the story of Veda Grenfell, an unconventional young woman with an indomitable spirit. Raised on Savile Row, the enclave of fashionable London tailors, Veda is every inch her father’s daughter. She has inherited his talent, his sense of style, and his love of tailoring. When a fever leaves her deaf at the age of sixteen, shattering her hopes of marriage, only Grenfell’s familiar workshop offers any promise of an active life. Determined to prove her worth in a world off-limits to respectable women, Veda persuades her father to promote her to the front of the shop where she makes a name for herself as tailor to London’s smart young sporting set.
Veda matures into a woman of eye-catching beauty, inspiring the devotion of her dear and faithful tutor, Mr. Nicholls, as well as an ambitious Italian tailor who seeks to rise in her father’s firm. For years, Veda has been increasingly drawn to Harry Breadalbane, a young viscount with humane ambitions frustrated by the expectations of his class. Heedless of the unsettling rumors about Harry’s family and his brutally powerful father, Veda has absolute faith in Harry’s goodness. When passion turns to betrayal, she abandons her beloved Savile Row and sets off on a treacherous journey that will lead her into a world of deception, murder, and madness.

He Just Needs To Be Loved by Patricia Zimmerman
About He Just Needs To Be Loved by Patricia Zimmerman
When my husband and I adopted three-year old Tyler from Ukraine in 1992, the orphanage director told us, “He just needs to be loved,” but Tyler needed much more than love. The product of neglect and abuse, he was a wounded little soul who fought every attempt that was made to integrate him into the family, afraid to trust in human relationships. During his first years in America, Tyler was diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (an Autism spectrum Disorder) Reactive Attachment Disorder and Tourette Syndrome, leaving my family ill-prepared to handle such an emotionally fragile little boy. HE JUST NEEDS TO BE LOVED chronicles Tyler’s journey from a troubled child to a confident, happy, young man with endless possibilities.

About Army of Angels by SD Tanner:
Picking up from the end of Book Two, ‘Heaven Meets Hell’, the journey of Gears, Pax, TL and Ip continues. Unexpectedly their world is thrown into turmoil when Mackenzie makes a decision that almost destroys everything they have achieved. Struggling to cope with the fallout of Mackenzie’s action, they must find the righteous path, but in losing heart they lose their way.
Their enemy is no longer elusive and becomes increasingly more determined to destroy what they have built. Matching tactic for tactic, our weakened team must find their footing if they are to stay in the game. With their enemy growing more determined and their own resources stretched to their limits, the stakes remain the same but the danger is growing.
The Hunter Wars is as addictive as ever as the battle between good and evil continues. Our characters are learning and developing, the plot never stops and the humour and sharp dialogue gives the story the edge to keep readers hooked. The story never subsides into a formula, but keeps evolving and there is never a boring moment.
Book Three, ‘Army of Angels’ is the next step in this fun and fast-paced story. You won’t want to put this series down and you will always want to know what happens next!

About Three At The Center Of Rage:
Book is on sale for 99 cents for a very limited time!
This is unbeautiful America on the brink of disaster. A time of terror, of war, of financial greed reaching corrosively into politics, intelligence and defense. In the gritty foreground of this story, which travels from Manhattan to Moscow to South Asia, there are three primary, but basically unrelated, actors whose lives, while appearing to barely touch, will produce a butterfly effect with the explosive power of C4.
The first is Detective Sergeant Frank Driscoll, assigned to a seemingly routine murder in Manhattan’s gentrified Hell’s Kitchen. The victim is a beautiful Russian immigrant, and what looks like a botched mugging turns out to be an execution by the shooter fall-guy with whom Driscoll engages in a traumatic firefight. Not so routine, the case will forever change Driscoll’s life. The more he pushes into the investigation the more he penetrates the polished background of the well-connected, uncovering money laundering, sex for blackmail and government contracts, and threatening a power elite which does not hesitate to employ painful methods in pushing back.
The second actor, a third gen Pakistani-American law student, finds his life is turned upside down when his fun-loving brother goes missing while attending their uncle’s funeral in Islamabad. An episode setting in motion the student’s fateful journey into the terror camps of South Asia, while leaving in his wake a ticking bomb that Detective Driscoll must finesse:
The third actor, “a lost in a crowd” porter at Wall Street’s TrustBank-Manhattan. A delusional and emotionally needful outsider who teeters atop a cauldron of rage, ready to be persuaded, to be shoved, to morph from the daily humdrum into today’s world of terror.

Author Bio:
I’m an artist & writer living surrounded by wildlife in Connecticut with my talented artist/gardener wife of 60 years. For viewers with enormous patience my bio follows. For those lacking the necessary staying power, I advise you to skip it.
I was born in New York City in 1928. My father had flown airplanes made of canvas and sticks in WWl, in France, while my mother had sung and danced in vaudeville. Everything was fine until the Crash of 29. What I recall is a series of one-bedroom apartments and hard times, but my older sister and I had no complaints since this was simply the way things were, and many were worse off than we were, some of whom we occasionally took in for a week or two. People shared back then.
As a child I was always drawing with pencil and crayon, and painting with oils on cardboard. But most important at the time, I was a street kid along with hundreds of others and loved it. I shined shoes, sold newspapers, carried wet wash for Wong’s laundry, delivered groceries, then worked in a ping-pong paddle factory and various warehouses. For a few months in 1945 I served below decks in the engine room in the U.S. Maritime Service, before segueing that winter into the Army Engineers, which consisted of building things, blowing up things, and running machinery.
I worked as an accounting clerk for a steamship line, shared driving big rigs interstate (first trip about 3800 miles, no super highways), then as a wire lather (way up) constructing high-rise apartment buildings. In 1949 I began using my G.I Bill: Fine art at the Art Student’s league of New York, and in 1950 at the Workshop School of Advertising and Editorial Design and Illustration, where I met my future, and very talented, wife, Lorraine. After one semester she left to attend The Parson’s School of Design. When my G.I. Bill expired I returned to the Art Student’s League at night, paying my way for a couple of years by running elevators, including the “tower car,” in the Wall Street Bank that was the model for the one I used in my novel, Three At The Center Of Rage. Yes, as my character Charlie did, I had occasion to climb from the boardroom to the bank’s roof at 2 or 3 in the morning, absent Charlie’s rage, of course, to admire the impressive view.
I designed record album covers but never went into advertising or illustration. Rather, having seen my wife’s work in decorative product design, I followed suit working on staff as a designer for 3 companies before, in 1963, creating my own design studio in midtown Manhattan, eventually becoming a consultant designer and design director for a number of corporations. Meanwhile we had two beautiful daughters, and by 1973, as Ryan Associates, Lorraine became my full time partner. While all this was going on I attended a writer’s workshop, at night, at what was then known as the New School for Social Research. As the years passed our daughters provided us with 5 wonderful grandchildren.
Retiring to Connecticut, Lorraine and I returned to fine art. Lorraine has shown in galleries and won many awards in juried shows. I focused on wildlife/nature in my paintings, then out of curiosity bought a computer, tinkered with it and studied web development at Western Connecticut University. I produced two websites (still on view): http://www.RyanArtDuo.com which is a gallery of our paintings, and http://www.MartinJRyan.com which also hosts my older site: http://www.UncleSammySays.com a decidedly left-of-center blog featuring my political rants and cartoons. Enough? I left out the bad stuff. For those who persevered in reading this—you are amazing.

The Power of Labels by Marsy Beron
About The Power of Labels by Marsy Beron
$4.69
28.11.2014 and 1.12.2014
THE POWER OF LABELS will change your life
The problem of labels and labeling is widespread in modern society, but it has rarely been considered from the aspect Marsy Beron has done it. It is often that we talk about labeling specific minority ethnic or social groups, but we rarely mention how labels, with which the environment bombards us on a daily basis, affect the psyche of the individual. This problem is part of our mental health and our everyday life. “The Power of Labels” analyzes the reasons behind this psychological phenomenon and provides ideas and guidelines for ways to handle it.
The book is rather intended as a guide for its readers to encourage them to find their inner center, and maintain their balance before health problems appear.
Beron’s main focus is the distortion in self-perception that accumulates over time through communication with others and how these distortions gradually turn into beliefs, complexes and unproductive behaviors that make it difficult to achieve goals and diminish one’s satisfaction with life.
Author Marsy Beron shares many examples from her work as psychotherapist and insights on the impact of labels on the psyche and suggests ways to get out of the vicious cycle of self-blame and dependence on the approval of others.
The book contains many personal stories, exercises, a few thought experiments and many tips.
